A Million Man and A Million Woman and A Million Transgender and A Million Immigrants and A Million with at least two years of community college booing Trump at his “ Sworn In” and his parade. No need to hold signs or violence . Form peaceful groups and BOO him relentlessly.

I used to love Evan Now I see the show on Harris and black men which has nothing to do with food This was my safe space and you contaminated it

I don’t live in LA - I’ve actually never lived in LA - but I love listening to this podcast. I read, listen and watch a lot of food related media but this podcast stands out because of its scope. With a friendly, sincere and knowledgeable air, Evan Kleiman delves into all sorts of stories related to food, some which are generally ignored, such as how prison labor is used in food processing and how a registered nurse from the Philippines started a restaurant that doesn’t charge doctors, nurses, clergy and others who work to help people. It’s got breadth and depth and does it all with a light touch.

Evan’s expansive interests in all things food, including how and where it’s grown and cultivated, as well as the environmental, cultural, political, religious, and economic factors surrounding food offer us an informative, entertaining, and thought-provoking experience. Frankly, I’d love Evan to run for Congress and help re-set our priorities, as well as bring both sides to a table filled with nourishing, good food and reconcile our differences.

This uplifting podcast is my favorite antidote for today’s anxious media. The voices are authentic, practical, and thoughtful. The focus on quality content rather than ads, music, or sound effects is a huge gift. Thank you for this heartwarming, informative public podcast related to a raison d’etre - good food!

Evan has done such a beautiful job of inclusion I adore this podcast normally, but in today’s episode the term TERF was used so I looked it up. This term only speaks about cisgender women not being inclusive and nothing about cisgendered men not being inclusive. In fact I could not find a term for the issue. If we want to create peace wouldn’t it be good to exclude such content that creates more hate a gender that has had to fight against the patriarchy since the beginning of time. Further more hating women is bad for transgender women. It’s all bad. Let’s spread more love.

As a Haitian, very disturbed to hear the Haitian expert being brought on to educate the audience about Haitian cuisine mention cilantro as something Haitians use in their cooking and in soup joumou. Haitians do NOT use cilantro any more than French bistros use scotch bonnet peppers. You can do better. This is generally a good podcast with good information. Soup joumou does not include cilantro. Parsley yes, cilantro no no no.

Been listening to the pod for several years now, ever since seeing Evan on the chef show! Loved the most recent episode about tech and food!

I enjoy listening to this entertaining and informative podcast every weekend. But sometimes Evan can be overly political. I do like listening, and sometimes the politics are good to know, especially regarding corporatizing. But Evan feels the need to apologize for being white all the time and it is off putting.

I can only imagine how much labor goes into producing a podcast of this caliber and quality. Your shows throughout the pandemic have been honest, inspiring and unafraid to address the extremely difficult issues of economic injustice, racism, food insecurity, etc. I appreciate how you have transformed and become richer and delved deeper into your subject matter and coverage. I look forward to more.

I miss the days when the joy of food was the conversation and “being woke” wasn’t seen as the answer to ALL our struggles.

I love this show, but I can’t find anywhere to comment, so I’m just going to use the reviews as a place to make comments. In the latest market report, the farmer who importing fruit and growing them hit it on the nose. Those sour Italian oranges, I made an amazing margarita with them! I’m excited to one day find them if I ever visit LA.

The guy should take a leave of absence….too scared to actually do his jov and hurting the industry

It’s great but can they not put ads in the middle of someone’s sentence??

Informative, entertaining, and always current - although I am now far away from its base of Los Angeles, Good Food not only has plenty of universally appealing content, but enough Angeleno soul to bring me right back to LA once a week. I can almost feel the sunshine, hear the traffic, and taste the tortillas with each listen.

Evan is a wonderful host, curious and kind. I have learned so much from these conversations. I really loved the anosmia episode—a lovely balance of personal experiences/stories/reflections, and then the current research. Thank you for this great work.

Folu: A generation of people who speak with a question after every sentence. Had to get off the treadmill and fast forward but then I hear the beer people and their hyperbolism and had to move on to another podcast.

I TrueType hate this show and the host. She has no consideration for nature and animals as she constantly the climate killer meat and animal products. Most cooks and restaurants she promotes are not organic and poison the earth. She doesn’t think twice, she doesn’t learn. This show should not exist. The host is the enemy not the solution!

A good measure of how successful a podcast is if you come away having learned something. Every episode I learn many things. From technique, to culture to geo-politics and all manner of deliciousness. Evan Kleiman speaks from the heart, knows everyone and asks questions I want to know or didn’t know to ask. Her calm manner and soulful passion shines as she extracts every morsel out of the interview. Their restaurant recommendations are spot on and serve to pinpoint people, places and menus that make Los Angeles/Southern California dining extraordinary.

Host is always rude or dismissive about vegetarian or vegan foods, so is annoying and frustrating to listen to

This is my go to podcast for my Sunday walk. I love Evan and her way of guiding a conversation. It really is a nice way to keep up to date with what is going on in the Southern California food scene.

Today I learned the details of what happened to Bread. What was once considered to be dirties by immigrant hands, is now selling (not o my to me) for upwards of $10 a loaf. The listening is so unpolitically comforting and smart. Thank you Evan!

This is a perfect show with no politics or BS. Just some wholesome people talking about cooking.

Congratulations. I have followed for years. This is necessary KCRW, thank you!

Good Food has been my favorite podcast for a long time, but during these past months it’s become a necessity. Evan, you talk to your listeners like we’re your close friends. I’ve laughed, cried and always learn something new. Thank you for an hour that means so much!

Evan’s curiosity and kindness is evident in every interview. Great variety of subjects and empathy for producers, cooks, restaurant workers, especially in this new uncertain reality. Happy to have discovered this podcast, I’m also digging into past episodes!

In depth looks at many different aspects of the food business. Evan, the interviewer, speaks clearly and slowly, unlike so many speech. But I would like the names of her guests, businesses, etc., referenced with maybe links in the notes so I can find more about them. Also, Evan, it’s restaurateur” not “restauranteur.” Not the only person to make this mistake, but... I just wish I lived in LA so I could check out the places she talks about!

In all the chaos that is 2020, Good Food has been my happy place. I listen while cooking my own dinner and always am struck by inspiration and transported to amazing restaurants in LA that I’ll one day hopefully get to try. Thank you for bringing this joy to our ears and highlighting the creative magic of cooking in California!

I’ve been a listener for years and years. Evan is a gracious, thoughtful host with well-researched and humanizing stories. It’s flat-out great storytelling. Every episode has a new book or documentary or article I’m compelled to check out. One of a small handful of podcasts I never miss.

Evan Kleinman brings all aspects of the kitchen and dining to life with an incredibly apetizing tone of voice. After each episode, there is always a note or two to take on a great cookbook, interesting receipe idea or new resturaunt to try. Absolutely love this show. Thank you for it!!

I miss Evan and Good Food. There has not been an episode for three weeks. The last one was January 3. I subscribe and also went to KCRW website. Nothing about taking a hiatus or anything about the show’s absence. Does anyone know what is going on? Or, not going on???

Evan has taught me so much about food. This podcast has arguably changed my life!

I like this podcast it’s the best

Evan is a treasure. I listen to this show every Sunday as I do meal prep or make a big slow cooker of something. I’ve bookmarked so many places on Yelp that are mentioned on the show. When the world feels like toxic media all of the time, Good Food can cleanse that terrible stuff from your system.

and i love this podcast

I’m a little ashamed to say I’ve been listening to this show for years (10+) yet I’ve never done a review. This is a great show! If u eat food, this show is 4 u. I like to listen while I’m cooking...or not. It has some great recipes, inspiration for trying new ingredients & really awesome interviews with tremendous chefs & experts in various food related industries. In fact, a show about salt is why I stopped using Kosher Salt to season my food & started using mineral salt & have since moved on to pink Himalayan salt. A little thing but kind of a big thing when you love to cook & appreciate good food. I’ve heard many professional chefs say they like & use K. salt....tsk, tsk, tsk, if only they knew! It’s diverse AF, Ev is always talking to people who love to cook & love good food from EVERY background. And someone’s review said it best, she makes it seem so easy. It’s like she’s just talking to a friend about food & you get to listen in. What a treat. If you subscribe... enjoy. Shout out to Jonathan Gold & my guy Anthony Bourdain... R.I.P.

Thanks for not getting too political. I know it’s likely that you’re politics are not mine, I appreciate your respect.

I have been listening to Good Food for a very long time and look forward to every episode. As a native of Los Angeles who had to move away for work, Evan and her team help to keep me feeling somewhat connected to a city that was such a big part of my life.

Been listening to Good Food for 15+ years and it just keeps getting better and better. There is no one better at what she does than Evan. She makes it seem so easy, which is proof of how talented her and the team are, cause it definitely isn't. Yes, it's a food show....but it's really about using food as a lens to explore so many other subjects. I'm so grateful for all they've taught me over the years and LA is lucky to have a woman like Evan to tell the stories of this great city.

So entertaining, so educational. Evan and her team do an exemplary job in all things food and drink.

I’ve been listening to Good Food for as long as KCRW’s website has been streaming it, and now as a podcast. Evan is a great interviewer with a focussed progressive perspective. She delights in food’s pleasures, while sharing her fascination with its producers, artistes, and critics. Her warmth and generosity in interviews is underscored by the impression that she secretly might know more than her guests about their topics. Good Food made me aware of the broad-reaching cultural, political, and environmental implications of our food-related lives long before food justice was part of our discourse. Thank you for this show!

My only problem with Good Food is that I sometimes feel inferior for not living in or around LA. Those of us east of California may not be so on top of trends as this food scene, but at least we can get a taste via Good Food. But it is about so much more than trends. I love the news and culture coverage that is nationally relevant, and the market report that takes a close look at a certain ingredient available at the farmers market is genius (again, even if the rest of us can’t just walk down and get that ultra local goat cheese). The episodes are long, but easy to pick up in hits here and there.

I have been listening to this podcast for well over 10 years and it remains one of my weekly treats that I look forward to every Saturday. As a person interested in everything food, from producing it to eating it, the podcast curates topics that are always current and pertinent. Evan is a great conversationalist, her questions are always thoughtful and on point which makes for an engaging and enjoyable listen. Highly highly recommended.

"Good Food" is one of my favorite podcasts because it showcases how food - it's origins, variety, meanings, and the influence of those who prepare it - impacts our lives on multiple levels. Evan Kleiman is perfect as host not only due to her passion for and knowledge of the subject matter, but also because she is a skillful, engaged interviewer. This is why"Good Food" remains at the top of my playlist rotation.

There’s a reason this has been around for so long. Evan Kleinman is an LA treasure as much as her friend Jonathan Gold. Both never put themselves before their subjects unlike other podcasters who barely let their guests get a word in. She asks the questions you are thinking about, her subject matter is thoughtful and entertaining and her laugh should be marketed to replace all mood enhancers. This review is long overdue. Good food amd Evan have been improving my world for years. (No I am not a relative. 😊)

I've been listening to this show for 15 years and it's consistently great. It's not a cooking show, it's a show about food, where it comes form, who grows it, who cooks it, who eats it, and why. But be warned, if you don't live in SoCal, listening to the Santa Monica Farmer's Market report in the dead of winter can be torture, hearing about all the lovely fresh fruit (or the tomatoes!). I will really miss Johnathan Gold's segments.

Started listening to this amazing podcast about six months ago. Now this has become an integral part of my everyday commute from work to home. Have finished listening to all the available episodes recently and will keep listening to it every week now. It’s really hard to find such great radio presenters these days like Evan Kleiman. It’s very informative and well designed program that you would instantly like and keep listening. Even thought I am from Northern California but my love has grown more towards LA after listening to this podcast.

Evan Kleinman gets better and better with her interviews and topics covered. The show doesn't shy away from difficult issues that resonate all over the country, not just California. Her tributes this year to Jonathan Gold and Anthony Bourdain are wonderful. thank you KCRW

Would be better if she stuck to articles about food and left out the politics.

So I am from Boston. It doesn’t matter. Their still lots to learn for this foodie when hearing of the LA food scene. You are keeping me sane when I choose this podcast over he news of the day.
